Support for veterans in college topic of seminar

Higher education faculty are invited to learn how to support students who are veterans at a Washington State University Tri-Cities seminar at 2:30 p.m. Tuesday.

The seminar is designed for higher education faculty and staff who find that more of their students have a military background and might have unique needs as they adjust to civilian life and an academic setting.

At WSU Tri-Cities, 10 percent of students are veterans.

The seminar will be led by Peter Schmidt, senior associate dean for student success and retention at Edmonds Community College and a contractor for the Washington Department of Veterans Affairs.
